Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Rules)

These Rules amend the Prison Rules 1999 in relation to prisoners serving a sentence of imprisonment to which an intermittent custody order relates. An intermittent custody order is an order which a court makes when passing a sentence of imprisonment which specifies the periods during which the prisoner is to be released temporarily on licence before he has served the custodial period.

Rule 4 amends rule 35 to provide that such a prisoner shall be entitled to receive a visit only where the governor considers that desirable having regard to the extent to which he has been unable to meet with his family and friends in the periods during which he has been temporarily released on licence.

Rule5 amends rule 43 to provide that, in relation to such a prisoner, an inventory of his property shall only be kept if its estimated value exceeds £100.
